Over the past few years Brevard Community Church has had the privilege of getting to know Emmaline Wayne and her family.
Emmaline is in ninth grade and is a walking miracle! She has victoriously survived more surgeries and procedures than most people endure in a lifetime. With an indomitable, optimistic spirit, she has never complained, never wavered in her faith in God, never felt sorry for herself and never lost her love of life. We continually stand in awe of her strength and courage.
Emmaline is in such good health today! It is through God's mercy and the dedicated work of doctors and researchers that her life has been spared many times. Although she still has ongoing heart issues, we have reason to hope that God will continue to work through the amazing field of medicine and research to someday bring about her healing.
Emmaline's family is organizing a walk in honor of Emmaline that will raise support for The Children's Heart Foundation (CHF). "The goal of CHF is to bring health, hope and happiness to children impacted by congenital heart defects, the number one birth defect in the United States. They accomplish this goal by funding the most promising research to advance the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of congenital heart defects."
We would be deeply grateful for your support of The Children's Heart Foundation, as it could one day be instrumental in helping to find a cure for Emmaline's heart defects.
We will embark on a 4-mile Walk through the town of Brevard, NC, and we heartily welcome anyone who wishes to join us.
Walk for CHF will be held on Saturday, May 14, at 9:30 a.m. at Brevard Community Church.
